1) How many fully grown adult collared lizards (if any at all)can be placed in a 36x18x16 enclosure (40 gall breeder)?
2) Can you feed them other things such as f/t mice, mealworms, waxworms instead of crickets? And only feed crickets once in awhile?

I use mostly all 40 gallon breeders, and have breeding groups of 1 male and 2-3 females in one enclosure.
Males can not be together, unless real little guys, but they will evenually have to be seperated.

As far as main diet, crickets are the main stay, with waxies, superworms, moths, and the occasional pinky as other foods added for variety, and also used for bulking them up.

Hope you stick around, we like people as well as lizards here, hehehhehe
